Just wondering if anyone is running a Phantom Grip LSD. For the price of 350 they are around what I would pay to get a VLSD. Plus, I believe it reacts like a mechanical LSD which I would like. Any thoughts?

I've never used one, but I've heard alot of people say they suck.

In drag racing they seem to work pretty well, but once you start cornering they are not as effective. They do their job by putting pressure on the spider gears and making the differential act as a LSD, but I've heard of some people's differential gears breaking because of it.

Plus you need professional installation. I got my J30 LSD for I believe $250 and it was a cinch to install. There are much better options than the phantom grip LSD, unless you have a professional installer that will install cheap and you only drag race.
